Silent Love

SILENT LOVE by JOHN M. ARRIBAS I waited too long I thought you’d always be here When we all got together I would move to be near Its quite late now I’m afraid my dream may never come true I had rehearsed all those feelings I had saved to tell you I had all the words down pat and the rhythm as well But waiting so long will make it harder to sell There are many things I should have told you ages ago They may not have the same impact but I really pray so One thing is certain my feelings will remain With rapture and solace its too painful to explain There is a joy in my being that only you can impart We are near the end yet never really had a start I feel so lonely when I visit our old familiar places Just your name and our friends have smiles on their faces Hoping, I go every night to the café where we met I let you slip away a foolish lapse I’ll always regret I can’t tell you how many times my heart has bled When I realize “ our love” exists only in my head
